450 steel wheels on a 451?

Still looking for some (cheap) steel wheels; any of the 450 folks know if those wheels would work on the 451? Thanks!

Have you looked here?

Evilution - Smart Car Encyclopaedia

I think pretty much every smart wheel is listed.

Different offsets.
Can your smart dealer not get replacement steel wheels for the 451?
They are cheap over here.

Thanks, they certainly can order them but they're not cheap - around $95 for the fronts and something like $112 for the rears were the prices I've been quoted. Over $400/200 GB pounds a set.

About 1200 USD for a set of steelies with snows last year from Canada...
I was hoping for something from tire rack for a more affordable alternative.

Anyone know what the small holes between the lugs are for. It seems all the wheels that I have seen have this.
